DESCRIPTIONS:
Sebastien Najand is a composer and music producer currently based in Los Angeles. He holds the position as a Principal Composer at Riot Games where he has made musical themes for in-game characters, produced music for the annual World Series including collaborations with the rock group Imagine Dragons, and is currently in the news with the League of Legends alternate reality pop group K/DA. This conversation took place on the 11th of November, and the EP called "ALL OUT" had just been released and within one week gathered more than 77 million streams on Spotify alone.
This recording is a discussion I had with Sebastien as a part of my master's degree at the Royal College of Music in Stockholm where I am studying the relationship between game design and music in video games. I reached out to Sebastien because of his contributions to how the music for League of Legends has evolved, and his insights into how it became so succesful as it is today.
I hope this conversation can help people interested in music for video games understand what goes into the making of a catalog with such wide variation of musical styles and genres. Sebastien shares with us how he got to his current position, his approach to making music in collaborations and for a larger context than initially intended, and most importantly what the core values are for making great music!

LYRICS
I declare war
On anybody standing in the way of what I dream for
How could you ignore
The ones that are voiceless, screams from the poor
They only here to score
I do it for the underground kings that’ll need more
I’m kickin’ down your door
If I wonder why you got a pocket full of green for
It’s all about the get back
It’s hard to give back while the politicians kick back
They say I’m only brick rap
Well that’s the foundation of this mountain that I live at
I can get you kidnapped
These kids ain’t playin’ with you, actin’ like you live rap
And all those little mishaps
That only happen to you misfits, I’m here to fix that
Time to dig up your grave
Make it lower your voice
I told you not to play with the misfit toys
We running this gang
Getting sick of your noise
You stranded with a bad bunch of misfit toys
Rich get richer while the poor pickpocket
Swipes Maxwell ‘til the cops come knockin’
Have or have not, bein’ broke is not an option
Time after time when you got a thing for watches
When you the plug in the socket
And the powers that be can’t stop it
So obnoxious, borderline toxic
Both sides go to war like a mosh pit
Now let me switch up the optics
Our neighborhoods held us hostage
Some nights we slept in our closets
Gun fights was outside the projects
So you can't blame me for nonsense
I'm here to collect deposits
All else defies the logic
My people need me beside them
Time to dig up your grave
Make it lower your voice
I told you not to play with the misfit toys
We running this gang
Getting sick of your noise
You stranded with a bad bunch of misfit toys
Don't play with the misfits
Come play with the misfits
Don't play with the misfits
Come and play with the misfits
I told you don't play with the misfits
Must be deaf dumb and blind you a triplet
Don't you make me erase your existence
All by my lonely need no assistance
Any disrespect gets met with a vengeance
Burn down gossip and hidden agendas
We set the tone for all to remember
You rewrite history the greatest pretenders
You rewrite history the greatest pretenders
Time to dig up your grave
Make it lower your voice
I told you not to play with the misfit toys
We running this gang
Getting sick of your noise
You stranded with a bad bunch of misfit toys
Don't play with the misfits
Come play with the misfits
You stranded with a bad bunch of misfit toys

LYRICS
Ooh, yeah, he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds
Throw me in the sky
You would swear the sun shining
Ooh, yeah, he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds
Throw me in the sky
You would swear the sun shining
In this gothic underground city
We all sin
If I bring a couple rounds with me
Then we all win
I came back and brought the crown with me
The king's den
Break your nexus and your neck 'cause
Everybody's on your head
I might, just might kick your butt
Go run amok then paint my nails
Never learned to raise my hand
Was too busy raising hell
Everything I know I am
You should go and save yourself
Thought you had my number, huh?
Congratulations you played yourself, self
Underground utopia dynasties and dystopia
Fear is never an option so dying's not a real phobia
I'm beating the odds
Rising to every occasion as if I defeated the gods
Switch up the mod
Nothing but champions comin' up rolled in one little squad
Hold still while I bag that, uh
Talk bad 'til I snap back, uh
This ain't brown this that dark black
This that pitch black, jet black
Snap yo' ex watch me give him flashbacks
Pressure's rising fast as lighting they can't stop it now
If you ain't talking realness then just change the topic now
They laughing at the top like they can't see the bottom
And they thought I needed help but I got here without them
I am sharper than a pack of hundred razor blades
When the smoke clears, outta here, bet they name gon' fade
Ima be here doing it, doing it, my way
They said I should I change it up
But what did I say?
Ooh, yeah, he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds
Throw me in the sky
You would swear the sun shining
Ooh, yeah, he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds
Throw me in the sky
You would swear the sun shining
Hold still while I bag that, uh
Talk bad 'til I snap back, uh
This ain't brown this that dark black
This that pitch black, jet black
Snap yo' ex watch me give him flashbacks
I get that magic all on me
I feel like I'm Tracy McGrady
Enemies circled around me three-sixty
I count 'em one-eighty
I've been in court with the spirit beside me since I was a baby
Just getting chaotic y'all made me a product for
causing the chaos right here where they raised me
In this gothic underground city
We all sin
If I bring a couple rounds with me
Then we all win
I came back and brought the crown with me
The king's den
Break your nexus and your neck 'cause
Everybody's on your head
Ooo yeah he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds,
Throw me in the sky
you would swear the sun shining,
Ooo yeah he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds,
Throw me in the sky
You would swear the sun shining

Sébastien
Sébastien is a common French given name. It is a French form of the Latin name Sebastianus meaning "from Sebaste." Sebaste is the name of the town in Asia Minor, which was derived from the Greek word σεβαστος, or sebastos, meaning "venerable."

Saint Sebastian
Saint Sebastian (died c. 288) was an early Christian saint and martyr. According to Christian belief, he was killed during the Roman emperor Diocletian's persecution of Christians. He is commonly depicted in art and literature tied to a post or tree and shot with arrows. Despite this being the most common artistic depiction of Sebastian, he was, according to legend, rescued and healed by Irene of Rome. Shortly afterwards he went to Diocletian to warn him about his sins, and as a result was clubbed to death. He is venerated in the Catholic and Orthodox Churches.
The details of Saint Sebastian's martyrdom were first spoken of by 4th-century bishop Ambrose of Milan (Saint Ambrose), in his sermon (number 22) on Psalm 118. Ambrose stated that Sebastian came from Milan and that he was already venerated there at that time. Saint Sebastian is a popular male saint, especially among athletes.
Life
According to Sebastian's 18th-century entry in Acta Sanctorum, still attributed to Ambrose by the 17th-century hagiographer Jean Bolland, and the briefer account in the 14th-century Legenda Aurea, he was a man of Gallia Narbonensis who was taught in Milan. In 283, Sebastian entered the army at Rome under Emperor Carinus to assist the martyrs. Because of his courage he became one of the captains of the Praetorian Guards under Diocletian and Maximian, who were unaware that he was a Christian.

DESCRIPTIONS:
Sebastien Najand is a composer and music producer currently based in Los Angeles. He holds the position as a Principal Composer at Riot Games where he has made musical themes for in-game characters, produced music for the annual World Series including collaborations with the rock group Imagine Dragons, and is currently in the news with the League of Legends alternate reality pop group K/DA. This conversation took place on the 11th of November, and the EP called "ALL OUT" had just been released and within one week gathered more than 77 million streams on Spotify alone.
This recording is a discussion I had with Sebastien as a part of my master's degree at the Royal College of Music in Stockholm where I am studying the relationship between game design and music in video games. I reached out to Sebastien because of his contributions to how the music for League of Legends has evolved, and his insights into how it became so succesful as it is today.
I hope this conversation can help people interested in music for video games understand what goes into the making of a catalog with such wide variation of musical styles and genres. Sebastien shares with us how he got to his current position, his approach to making music in collaborations and for a larger context than initially intended, and most importantly what the core values are for making great music!

DESCRIPTIONS:
Sebastien Najand is a composer and music producer currently based in Los Angeles. He holds the position as a Principal Composer at Riot Games where he has made musical themes for in-game characters, produced music for the annual World Series including collaborations with the rock group Imagine Dragons, and is currently in the news with the League of Legends alternate reality pop group K/DA. This conversation took place on the 11th of November, and the EP called "ALL OUT" had just been released and within one week gathered more than 77 million streams on Spotify alone.
This recording is a discussion I had with Sebastien as a part of my master's degree at the Royal College of Music in Stockholm where I am studying the relationship between game design and music in video games. I reached out to Sebastien because of his contributions to how the music for League of Legends has evolved, and his insights into how it became so succesful as it is today.
I hope this conversation can help people interested in music for video games understand what goes into the making of a catalog with such wide variation of musical styles and genres. Sebastien shares with us how he got to his current position, his approach to making music in collaborations and for a larger context than initially intended, and most importantly what the core values are for making great music!

LYRICS
I declare war
On anybody standing in the way of what I dream for
How could you ignore
The ones that are voiceless, screams from the poor
They only here to score
I do it for the underground kings that’ll need more
I’m kickin’ down your door
If I wonder why you got a pocket full of green for
It’s all about the get back
It’s hard to give back while the politicians kick back
They say I’m only brick rap
Well that’s the foundation of this mountain that I live at
I can get you kidnapped
These kids ain’t playin’ with you, actin’ like you live rap
And all those little mishaps
That only happen to you misfits, I’m here to fix that
Time to dig up your grave
Make it lower your voice
I told you not to play with the misfit toys
We running this gang
Getting sick of your noise
You stranded with a bad bunch of misfit toys
Rich get richer while the poor pickpocket
Swipes Maxwell ‘til the cops come knockin’
Have or have not, bein’ broke is not an option
Time after time when you got a thing for watches
When you the plug in the socket
And the powers that be can’t stop it
So obnoxious, borderline toxic
Both sides go to war like a mosh pit
Now let me switch up the optics
Our neighborhoods held us hostage
Some nights we slept in our closets
Gun fights was outside the projects
So you can't blame me for nonsense
I'm here to collect deposits
All else defies the logic
My people need me beside them
Time to dig up your grave
Make it lower your voice
I told you not to play with the misfit toys
We running this gang
Getting sick of your noise
You stranded with a bad bunch of misfit toys
Don't play with the misfits
Come play with the misfits
Don't play with the misfits
Come and play with the misfits
I told you don't play with the misfits
Must be deaf dumb and blind you a triplet
Don't you make me erase your existence
All by my lonely need no assistance
Any disrespect gets met with a vengeance
Burn down gossip and hidden agendas
We set the tone for all to remember
You rewrite history the greatest pretenders
You rewrite history the greatest pretenders
Time to dig up your grave
Make it lower your voice
I told you not to play with the misfit toys
We running this gang
Getting sick of your noise
You stranded with a bad bunch of misfit toys
Don't play with the misfits
Come play with the misfits
You stranded with a bad bunch of misfit toys

LYRICS
Ooh, yeah, he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds
Throw me in the sky
You would swear the sun shining
Ooh, yeah, he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds
Throw me in the sky
You would swear the sun shining
In this gothic underground city
We all sin
If I bring a couple rounds with me
Then we all win
I came back and brought the crown with me
The king's den
Break your nexus and your neck 'cause
Everybody's on your head
I might, just might kick your butt
Go run amok then paint my nails
Never learned to raise my hand
Was too busy raising hell
Everything I know I am
You should go and save yourself
Thought you had my number, huh?
Congratulations you played yourself, self
Underground utopia dynasties and dystopia
Fear is never an option so dying's not a real phobia
I'm beating the odds
Rising to every occasion as if I defeated the gods
Switch up the mod
Nothing but champions comin' up rolled in one little squad
Hold still while I bag that, uh
Talk bad 'til I snap back, uh
This ain't brown this that dark black
This that pitch black, jet black
Snap yo' ex watch me give him flashbacks
Pressure's rising fast as lighting they can't stop it now
If you ain't talking realness then just change the topic now
They laughing at the top like they can't see the bottom
And they thought I needed help but I got here without them
I am sharper than a pack of hundred razor blades
When the smoke clears, outta here, bet they name gon' fade
Ima be here doing it, doing it, my way
They said I should I change it up
But what did I say?
Ooh, yeah, he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds
Throw me in the sky
You would swear the sun shining
Ooh, yeah, he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds
Throw me in the sky
You would swear the sun shining
Hold still while I bag that, uh
Talk bad 'til I snap back, uh
This ain't brown this that dark black
This that pitch black, jet black
Snap yo' ex watch me give him flashbacks
I get that magic all on me
I feel like I'm Tracy McGrady
Enemies circled around me three-sixty
I count 'em one-eighty
I've been in court with the spirit beside me since I was a baby
Just getting chaotic y'all made me a product for
causing the chaos right here where they raised me
In this gothic underground city
We all sin
If I bring a couple rounds with me
Then we all win
I came back and brought the crown with me
The king's den
Break your nexus and your neck 'cause
Everybody's on your head
Ooo yeah he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds,
Throw me in the sky
you would swear the sun shining,
Ooo yeah he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds,

I came back and brought the crown with me
The king's den
Break your nexus and your neck 'cause
Everybody's on your head
Ooo yeah he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds,
Throw me in the sky
you would swear the sun shining,
Ooo yeah he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds,
Throw me in the sky
You would swear the sun shining

DESCRIPTIONS:
Sebastien Najand is a composer and music producer currently based in Los Angeles. He holds the position as a Principal Composer at Riot Games where he has made musical themes for in-game characters, produced music for the annual World Series including collaborations with the rock group Imagine Dragons, and is currently in the news with the League of Legends alternate reality pop group K/DA. This conversation took place on the 11th of November, and the EP called "ALL OUT" had just been released and within one week gathered more than 77 million streams on Spotify alone.
This recording is a discussion I had with Sebastien as a part of my master's degree at the Royal College of Music in Stockholm where I am studying the relationship between game design and music in video games. I reached out to Sebastien because of his contributions to how the music for League of Legends has evolved, and his insights into how it became so succesful as it is today.
I hope this conversation can help people interested in music for video games understand what goes into the making of a catalog with such wide variation of musical styles and genres. Sebastien shares with us how he got to his current position, his approach to making music in collaborations and for a larger context than initially intended, and most importantly what the core values are for making great music!

LYRICS
I declare war
On anybody standing in the way of what I dream for
How could you ignore
The ones that are voiceless, screams from the poor
They only here to score
I do it for the underground kings that’ll need more
I’m kickin’ down your door
If I wonder why you got a pocket full of green for
It’s all about the get back
It’s hard to give back while the politicians kick back
They say I’m only brick rap
Well that’s the foundation of this mountain that I live at
I can get you kidnapped
These kids ain’t playin’ with you, actin’ like you live rap
And all those little mishaps
That only happen to you misfits, I’m here to fix that
Time to dig up your grave
Make it lower your voice
I told you not to play with the misfit toys
We running this gang
Getting sick of your noise
You stranded with a bad bunch of misfit toys
Rich get richer while the poor pickpocket
Swipes Maxwell ‘til the cops come knockin’
Have or have not, bein’ broke is not an option
Time after time when you got a thing for watches
When you the plug in the socket
And the powers that be can’t stop it
So obnoxious, borderline toxic
Both sides go to war like a mosh pit
Now let me switch up the optics
Our neighborhoods held us hostage
Some nights we slept in our closets
Gun fights was outside the projects
So you can't blame me for nonsense
I'm here to collect deposits
All else defies the logic
My people need me beside them
Time to dig up your grave
Make it lower your voice
I told you not to play with the misfit toys
We running this gang
Getting sick of your noise
You stranded with a bad bunch of misfit toys
Don't play with the misfits
Come play with the misfits
Don't play with the misfits
Come and play with the misfits
I told you don't play with the misfits
Must be deaf dumb and blind you a triplet
Don't you make me erase your existence
All by my lonely need no assistance
Any disrespect gets met with a vengeance
Burn down gossip and hidden agendas
We set the tone for all to remember
You rewrite history the greatest pretenders
You rewrite history the greatest pretenders
Time to dig up your grave
Make it lower your voice
I told you not to play with the misfit toys
We running this gang
Getting sick of your noise
You stranded with a bad bunch of misfit toys
Don't play with the misfits
Come play with the misfits
You stranded with a bad bunch of misfit toys

LYRICS
Ooh, yeah, he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds
Throw me in the sky
You would swear the sun shining
Ooh, yeah, he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds
Throw me in the sky
You would swear the sun shining
In this gothic underground city
We all sin
If I bring a couple rounds with me
Then we all win
I came back and brought the crown with me
The king's den
Break your nexus and your neck 'cause
Everybody's on your head
I might, just might kick your butt
Go run amok then paint my nails
Never learned to raise my hand
Was too busy raising hell
Everything I know I am
You should go and save yourself
Thought you had my number, huh?
Congratulations you played yourself, self
Underground utopia dynasties and dystopia
Fear is never an option so dying's not a real phobia
I'm beating the odds
Rising to every occasion as if I defeated the gods
Switch up the mod
Nothing but champions comin' up rolled in one little squad
Hold still while I bag that, uh
Talk bad 'til I snap back, uh
This ain't brown this that dark black
This that pitch black, jet black
Snap yo' ex watch me give him flashbacks
Pressure's rising fast as lighting they can't stop it now
If you ain't talking realness then just change the topic now
They laughing at the top like they can't see the bottom
And they thought I needed help but I got here without them
I am sharper than a pack of hundred razor blades
When the smoke clears, outta here, bet they name gon' fade
Ima be here doing it, doing it, my way
They said I should I change it up
But what did I say?
Ooh, yeah, he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds
Throw me in the sky
You would swear the sun shining
Ooh, yeah, he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds
Throw me in the sky
You would swear the sun shining
Hold still while I bag that, uh
Talk bad 'til I snap back, uh
This ain't brown this that dark black
This that pitch black, jet black
Snap yo' ex watch me give him flashbacks
I get that magic all on me
I feel like I'm Tracy McGrady
Enemies circled around me three-sixty
I count 'em one-eighty
I've been in court with the spirit beside me since I was a baby
Just getting chaotic y'all made me a product for
causing the chaos right here where they raised me
In this gothic underground city
We all sin
If I bring a couple rounds with me
Then we all win
I came back and brought the crown with me
The king's den
Break your nexus and your neck 'cause
Everybody's on your head
Ooo yeah he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds,
Throw me in the sky
you would swear the sun shining,
Ooo yeah he mad
I'm racking up white diamonds,
Throw me in the sky
You would swear the sun shining
